Says Wirth: “We respect and greatly appreciate the work of the many talented people at ZO and thank them for their contribution to the Qantas business.

“We were impressed with OMD throughout the pitch processes and their strong alignment with Qantas’ future media planning and buying strategy.

 

“In OMD we have chosen the agency that provides us with the most comprehensive and innovative ideas to help drive the Qantas brand into the future.”

Qantas will continue to work with Red Planet, Qantas Loyalty’s media, analytics and research services business, in digital media planning and buying.
